LNG and gas terminals in Singapore

LNG import, regasification and gas supply infrastructure — the terminals, tanks and piped-gas networks that feed a power system running almost entirely on natural gas. Buyers and the regulator read this pillar on terminal throughput and storage (Mtpa, cubic metres), import licensing and low-carbon readiness.

Gas is the backbone of Singapore's energy system — about 95% of the nation's electricity is generated from natural gas — which makes LNG import, regasification and gas supply infrastructure a strategic core of the Energy & Chemicals sector. The physical anchor is the Singapore LNG (SLNG) Terminal on Jurong Island, the country's sole LNG import and regasification facility, which scaled in phases from 3.5 million tonnes a year (two tanks, 2013) to 6 Mtpa with a third tank and further with a fourth. A signed second terminal — a 5-Mtpa FSRU-based facility at Jurong Port with MOL, Jurong Port and Wood — will lift SLNG's combined throughput capacity to 15 Mtpa by the end of the decade. The buyer/regulator reads this pillar on terminal throughput and storage (Mtpa, m³), import licensing (the EMA term-LNG-importer regime), and increasingly on low-carbon readiness (ammonia and hydrogen co-location).

The field is a small set of homegrown, largely state-linked operators. SLNG (Temasek-linked) runs the terminal. Sembcorp Industries is Singapore's largest natural-gas supplier and the nation's first commercial gas importer, appointed an EMA term-LNG importer, running piped-gas import and retail. Keppel holds gas interests including City Energy (City Gas), Singapore's sole producer of piped town gas — reformed largely from natural gas at Senoko Gasworks at about 1.6 million standard cubic metres a day to roughly 900,000 customers. And Pavilion Energy, the Singapore LNG trading, supply and marine-bunkering business, was acquired by Shell (completed 2025) and folded into Shell's global LNG portfolio. Lead with the homegrown operators; several also carry power-generation and hydrogen/low-carbon slugs.

Sembcorp Industries
An SGX-listed energy and urban-solutions group, and Singapore's largest solar owner-operator — over 535 MWp locally across rooftop, ground-mount and floating, including the 60 MWp Tengeh Reservoir floating farm and the won 86 MWp Pandan Reservoir tender, with SolarNova tranches awarded. In water, it operates the Sembcorp NEWater Plant at Changi, Singapore's fifth and largest (~228,000 m3/day), and multiple energy-efficient MBR industrial-wastewater and reclamation plants including on Jurong Island.

Keppel
An SGX-listed asset manager and operator whose infrastructure arm spans three clean-energy capabilities. In solar, Keppel Renewable Energy develops solar and cross-border clean-power, progressing an Indonesia-to-Singapore electricity import licence. In water, Keppel Seghers built and operates the 137,000 m3/day Keppel Marina East Desalination Plant and delivered the 162,800 m3/day Ulu Pandan NEWater upgrade. In waste, it runs the ~2,310 t/day Senoko and ~800 t/day Keppel Seghers Tuas waste-to-energy plants, together treating close to half of Singapore's incinerable waste.
